The robots are the real star of this show

Rating: 9/10 (22 March 2018)

When Pacific Rim first came out nearly 5 years ago, it didn't make an impact in the US and Canada but overseas it was a huge hit. It was so huge, that a sequel was greenlit featuring two different characters in lead roles. I rented this on Bluray and enjoyed it for what it was...a popcorn movie. It's also very original yet borrows ideas from other action films from this decade and before. The CGI is pretty good and the way the monsters move is pretty good.
